2. Write the pure repeating (recurring) decimal number as an improper fraction.

  • 35.71428577 can be written as an improper fraction.

  • The numerator is larger than or equal to the denominator.

Set up the first equation.

  • Let y equal the decimal number:

  • y = 35.71428577


Set up the second equation.

  • Number of decimal places repeating: 8

  • Multiply both sides of the first equation by 108 = 100,000,000


y = 35.71428577

100,000,000 × y = 100,000,000 × 35.71428577

100,000,000 × y = 3,571,428,577.71428577


Subtract the first equation from the second one.

  • Having the same number of decimal places ...
  • The repeating pattern drops off by subtracting the two equations.

100,000,000 × y - y = 3,571,428,577.71428577 - 35.71428577 ⇒

(100,000,000 - 1) × y = 3,571,428,577.71428577 - 35.71428577 ⇒

We now have a new equation:

99,999,999 × y = 3,571,428,542


Solve for y in the new equation.

99,999,999 × y = 3,571,428,542 ⇒

y = 3,571,428,542/99,999,999

Let the result written as a fraction.



Now we can write the number as a fraction.

According to our first equation:

y = 35.71428577

According to our calculations:

y = 3,571,428,542/99,999,999

⇒ 35.71428577 = 3,571,428,542/99,999,999
